Perception and us.



Perception

Perception or the way you see the world around you is the most creative power of human beings. We are the only ones who can view an object in more than one ways. Not in the different angles but different perceptions. Only humans can perceive differently than the rest of its species. Unlike any other living being.  And the people don’t realise this power of theirs and use it every single day. Perception changes everything, right from the way you see things, believe things or even trust issues. It’s the perception that creates the illusions and personalities of each person. They create the bubble around them and which sometimes is hard to penetrate and hence making them cynical and different from the rest of the people.



The most mysterious and awkward thing is that the world senses this cynicism and treats it absurdly and in the most unimaginable way ever. In lay man terms, the world senses your fear and exploits it. And that my friends are the way of the world. Now people may ask how this is related to one’s perception. For that we have to understand that perception creates the persona which governs your behaviour and makes a person react to a thing in the way that person things.

But it’s not the interesting part yet, the interesting part is that perception can, regardless of the inherent emotions, solely drives most of our outcomes about a thing. For example, firstly we know stealing is bad and one should not commit to it but still some might believe that if the thief gets caught then it is a bad thing but if he isn’t caught then it’s his hard earned prize. Now that’s the play of perception, what seems wrong to one can seem right to another. And based on this our emotions and personalities build on and creates us the way we are. There are people who have same perception to similar things but just like none of ours DNA can match to another, similarly, none of ours perceptions match on about everything, there can be things about which two people can have same perception, but there will not be two people who will have the same perception about everything. And some of might have not noticed it, but this plays a key role in our social behaviour and most importantly relationships.

The most pettiest of the reason that most relationships don’t work out is that “we aren’t compatible enough” , one might ask why is this the problem when in the beginning of the relationship everything seemed perfect. There comes the rule above mentioned, that you may have same perception about certain things and this creates attraction towards each other and one thing might lead to another and to your surprise you both are in relationship. But after sometime, you start to realise that there are things about which you have different perception about. And this is where things begin to get ugly and there are fights, angriness, desperation and even remorse and confusion. Confusion that whether the person you are with is he/she the right person? And hence leading to break-ups and stuff. So now you know how a small and insignificant word perception, can affect your life and how it is the reason of the way we are in a group or how we behave socially.

I hope you have taken something of knowledge today. And I really hope you guys like it. Please join in for more and read more of my blogs about such unnoticeable things of life which creates a deeper impact on us.
